I own a Toshiba satellite P10 which has developed some very wierd power
issues in the past few months. It only seems to charge the battery when
hibernating or when it is turned off. Also the computer switches from
AC power mode to battery power all the time, usually shortly after
being turned on, or awaking from hibernating.
All this means is that I can only run the computer on battery power
until the battery runs out, then I have to hibernate it and wait for
the battery to charge. You can imagine what an inconvenience this is.
If I try just running it on AC power it will turn off unexpectedly. I
have tried buying a new power supply thinking this was the problem.
After realizing this solved nothing I tried replacing the power jack.
Still the same problems persist. Ive also ordered a new battery on ebay
hoping that this may be the solution, but I'm skeptical that will
change much. I'm running out of ideas here... please help!
